Skin & Bone lyrics

Fat flabby annie was incredibly bigShe weighed just about sixteen stoneAnd then a fake dietician went and put her on a dietNow she looks like skin and bone.Do the meditation and yogaAnd she’s thrown away the good food guideAnd she’s given up the alcohol and pizzasAnd the pies and now she looks as if she’s ready to die,You can’t see her walk by.Don’t eat no mashed potatoes,Don’t eat no buttered sconesStay away from carbohydratesYou’re gonna look like skin and bone.Living on the edge of starvationAnd she says she’s got no appetiteAnd her father and her motherAnd her sisters and her brothersCouldn’t see her when she walked byShe looked like skin and bone.Don’t eat no mashed potatoes,Don’t eat no buttered sconesStay away from carbohydratesYou’re gonna look like skin and bone.She used to be so cuddly,She used to be so fat,But oh what a sin cos she’s oh so thinThat she lost all the friends that she had,She looks like skin and boneIf you look flabbyAnd you feel overweight,And you wanna lose a couple of stone,Take a crash course diet do your daily exercisesAnd you’ll look like skin and bone.Come on rattle them bones,Put your hands up to the ceiling,Bend your hips and touch your toes,Do your daily exercises,You’re gonna look like skin and bone,Don’t eat no mashed potatoes, etc.
